Re: Racal Cougar battery chemistry?

Hi Damian, it means you¡¯re in clear mode (ie: not encrypted) as these radios also offered an encryption module. If you hear a constant 1hz roughly blip, it reminds the user that you¡¯re speaking on an open channel and not to discuss sensitive information.

? Incidentally, if you switch to A and B do you hear a constant tone? It means with the encryption module isn¡¯t installed or not programmed. I feel you will hear a constant tone.

?Hi Bob
Thanks for the reply yeah I did some digging and found the same answer but thank you for the confirmation. I have discharged and recharged my SMT battery now and had a couple of QSOs with the Couger (I love it). One more question if I may while using the radio there is a constant but soft blip tone. I thought it was low battery tone like the Clansman kit but I have recharged it now and it's still there and I can't find out what it means ?
